Laredo
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 12 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Cedar Primary School, but no funding. We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $2,500. It will serve about 215 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in November and everyone is invited. We're a small team, and every dollar will be spent in the open - I'll post receipts and progress photos. All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance. Where the $2,500 goes: • Materials: $1,550 • Permits and inspections: $135 • Safety equipment and signage: $350 • Tools hire and delivery: $465 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Yasir
